You know I have come across a number of dead insects and spiders inside of computers during my life.
I have never come across a dead scorpion.
This was inside a fairly disgusting Mac II. The logic board is off to get diagnosed for why it just wants to play the chimes/chord of death

Finally got around to installing a BlueSCSI v2 into the Quadra 700 today.
One HDD image has 7.5.5 on it, the other has A/UX 3.1.1 on it.
The Quadra runs great. Hopefully one day I'll get a solution to the dead PSU situation with the Quadra 950 and have it running alongside the 700.

Had a good meet today. Sadly didn't sell a single thing unlike the last one. Annoying as the money would've been nice.
There was a massive turn out today, so many people selling stuff. Managed to buy stuff, which I was kinda trying to avoid. Got a Pentium 133 on a TX chipset Iwill (not ASUS, oops) motherboard, a couple of games and a purple see through Nintendo 64 controller.

Well today I have been able to put a numerical value against "Computer cases I have hosed out".
This Macintosh II case was violently disgusting, I do not know what was on it. I put on a mask, goggle and gloves and got down to cleaning it. After stripping the case down it got multiple cleans with some cleaning products, using non-destructive scrubbing pads.
Then both pieces of the case got hosed do

I had a good vintage meet today, I took along consoles as the organiser wanted something as well as having retro computers. Both the OG Xbox and US SNES worked fine all day. I even made a profit today selling off a computer and a laptop! ★ 3
